It snowed

 Still putting away Christmas decorations.  I am taking the tree down in living room and not rushing doing it.  Been enjoying the snow days we've had.   Very pretty but it was very cold some nights. 

Not as much I know as some have had, but I am hoping the snow season isn't over with yet.  I love it.

From our office window

Downstairs.   Santa still staring at me but he gets put away tomorrow. I love the candle glow so they may stay a little while longer. 

In my guest bath is a Moose who used to hold a chalkboard and chalk.  I still have it but I like the way he holds the little tree that I am leaving up for a while with little fairy lights.  It's wintery and I like it. 

Our bath is retro and will stay this way.  The green tiles I like and are  in great shape.  Our green sink along with the Formica top that is in great shape and not going to throw any money in here to change it. 

I do like retro

This little tea pot looking soap dispenser made in USA I found at a thrift store for $6.00 and couldn't pass it up. 

Yes, I am still making stars for Christmas this year, it's just that they are fun to do and are made from sticky note paper.  Origami. I will probably spray them and then sprinkle some crystal glitter and hang in the window or on tree this coming Christmas.  

Well, that is all for now.  Back to taking decor down.

I love Fall y'all

 I love Christmas but I want to enjoy every little bit of fall and Thanksgiving especially.

While in the process of wiping down my steps, I noticed how pretty the crepe was so I had to stop for a while and take a walk out. 

 Crepe Myrtle is showing off this year.  This was a couple days ago, most of the leaves have fallen.

Zinnias in back yard still going strong. 

I planted these marigolds back in Spring and they look much more colorful now

French Marigold is my favorite and was in the same seed packet as the yellow above

Leaves still changing but not so much in far back yard but the those awful acorns have fallen and we will use several large Ace bags to get those up in. 

Hard to walk on too.

That Crepe - love it.

Last of the Dahlias picked and brought in

I made some Autumn soup, I used one large butternut squash and two small pumpkins from my sisters garden.  I also add an apple to the soup, spices, cream and pepitas on top.  Had to have a salad to go with it.  Those grape tomatoes I am still picking form my plants in pots. 

Less than two weeks ago we took a ride on Skyline Drive.  Gorgeous as always.  

2,860 feet

Nice day trip and now ready for another.  One thing about where we live in Virginia, we are about two hours from the ocean and two from the mountains or little less, depending on where in the mountains we decide to travel to.  

Bye for now 🍂🌄
